"If you're keen on extending the growing season for your fruit and veg, greenhouses are a valuable investment. But traditional models can be a luxury for many of us, especially if space is at a premium and money is tight. Harrod Horticultural's lean-to-greenhouse gives you all the benefits of a traditional model and doesn't cost a fortune.
The sturdy steel framework fits over standard shelving and attaches easily to the side of a house, wall or fence, saving valuable space on your plot. It also protects tender crops from frost and pest damage. There's no glass involved, so it's safe to use if you've got children running around. The heavy duty PVC covers help to retain heat and are easily removed, allowing you to access your plants, and they're also simple to clean."
